Many will be aware that way before Lisa conquered the world’s charts as a solo artist, she fronted the Rochdale trio "Blue Zone", alongside Ian Devaney and Andy Morris. Their sole album 'Big Thing' was eventually released in Europe, North America and Australia in November 1988 and in Japan in early 1989 however, the album was never released in the U.K. by which time, they had built up a devoted club following and scored a U.S chart hit with "Jackie".
After much persuasion with the powers that be, we are extremely proud to be part of this project in making this sought-after album available for the very first time in the UK under the Edsel label. This remastered Deluxe Edition follows Edsel's acclaimed reissues of Lisa's Arista solo albums in 2014 and has been expanded to feature bonus tracks including the early singles 'Love Will Wait' and 'Finest Thing' rare B-sides and 12” mixes.
It features a 24-page booklet, with never commercially seen before photos, memorabilia and lyrics together with brand new sleeve notes about the band.
